1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundSmall-animal positron emission tomography (PET) imaging is commonly employed in biomedical research to accelerate the translation of the discovery in the fields of molecular and cellular biology into the clinical practice. Its performance and cost are largely dependent on the employed detectors and electronics. In this work, a new electronics scheme aiming to simplify PET electronics is evaluated using two dual-ended readout PET detectors with high spatial resolution.

methodsThe first detector is composed of a 16 × 16 lutetium-yttrium oxyorthosilicate (LYSO) array with crystal dimensions of 1.45 × 1.45 × 20 mm³. The second detector is composed of a 26 × 26 LYSO array with crystal dimensions of 0.75 × 0.75 × 20 mm³. Both LYSO arrays are dual-ended read out by 8 × 8 Hamamatsu S14161-3050HS-08 silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) arrays with a sensitive pixel area of 3 × 3 mm

resultsThe first detector provided a flood map with all crystals resolved and an average peak-to-valley ratio (PVR) of 3.59 was obtained for the flood map quality, an energy resolution of 14.2 ± 0.4%, a DOI resolution of 3.04 ± 0.37 mm and a detector timing resolution (DTR) of 2.24 ± 0.10 ns. The second detector provided a flood map with all crystals resolved and an average PVR of 2.61 was obtained, an energy resolution of 15.3 ± 0.7%, a DOI resolution of 2.56 ± 0.46 mm and a DTR of 2.38 ± 0.20 ns.

conclusionThe electronics scheme evaluated in this study provides competitive energy and DOI performance for high-resolution small-animal PET detectors while significantly reducing electronics channel count and system complexity.
